Structured, Fun Support to Get You Started
When I began studying the healing arts about 20 years ago, I was very intimidated when it came time to create my tools, i.e., smudge fans, talking sticks, wands etc. Materials I purchased to create items literally sat in my drawer for years. I figured I’d have to purchase these things as “I didn’t have the crafting gene and I didn’t have the time!”. Sound familiar?
These excuses dissolved when I started to attend my friend Kelly’s Craft Days. Participants were mostly women who showed up with Piggly Wiggly bags, Saran Wrapped treasures, bags of parakeet feathers, paint, crystals, yarn, and all sorts of oddities to piece together. We spent hours leisurely sharing stories, laughing, and sometimes crying as we showed one another the best glue to use, how to wrap, cut and tie objects….the list goes on. It fed my soul’s hunger to connect, and it was great fun. The special bonus was that I learned valuable crafting skills and created many beautiful, powerful healing tools.
So, get your calendar out and schedule this time to connect with sisters and make those items you have been dreaming about. Bring whatever you want to create!
